No Cam Johnson for the Suns this Saturday
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports

After missing two full months due to a right knee injury, the Suns finally got Cameron Johnson back on the court last night against the Brooklyn Nets.

Johnson picked up right where he left off, leading the Suns to a much-needed win, Phoenix had lost nine of their last ten games entering the matchup.

Although the young power forward only saw 21 minutes of action, he made a difference quickly by scoring 19 points and grabbing six rebounds.

However, due to injury management, the Suns will not play Cam Johnson on Saturday against the Indiana Pacers.

There has been no indication that Johnson further injured his knee, so it is safe to assume that the Suns are just being extra cautious.

Given the number of injuries this team has gone through this season, it is best they wait until everyone is at 100% before jumping back in.

Chris Paul and Josh Okogie are questionable for tomorrow, while Devin Booker, Landry Shamet, and Cam Payne are out.
